Everything you could want & more!

There’s a reason this house has perfect reviews - I stayed here with my family for Christmas. It was absolutely lovely! Communication with the owner was super easy and they were very responsive! Instructions were laid out for my family via chat prior to our stay along with a binder of helpful info in the home when we arrived. The location was unbeatable - prime spot, close to everything! The house itself had a ton of character, was cozy, clean, and comfortable! My family didn’t want to leave and had an amazing stay overall. Can’t recommend this home in Annapolis enough!

Great house with amazing location

We stayed here during the Annapolis Sailboat show, big kitchen and living room to hang out in plus a big garden out back. Only a block from downtown Annapolis and the show. This was the second year in a ow we stayed here, great place!

Great location

We were visiting family nearby. Lovely to be within a minute’s walk of downtown, harbor and Main Street. Family members sleeping in the bedroom facing the street were bothered by some noisy party people late at night, but the rest of us in the back of the house didn’t hear anything. The house was clean and the kitchen was pretty well furnished. Although I didn’t realize until it was time to take the cake I was baking out of the oven that there were no pot holders. 😳. Luckily a dish towel was a good alternative. As far as parking logistics — as mentioned in the listing, there was a space designated for unloading right across the street. Otherwise the street is too narrow to stop and unload without blocking traffic. When one of our party arrived they snagged that space right away to unload. But the residents of the neighboring building were pretty nasty, telling them they couldn’t park there. Then when that group left, those neighbors pulled their car into the space so the next members of our party who tried to use the spot had to double park. Not the property’s fault, but kind of unpleasant. Clearly they were not happy about renters next door. Aside from that experience, we enjoyed our stay. The only other odd thing was the morning we were leaving. We got an early morning knock on the door that turned out to be a process server looking to serve papers on the owner. 😳 I told him we were just renting for the weekend and he apologized and went on his way.
